Darla’s post about marriage and relationships inspired me to make the observation that Hubbs and I are like a cat & dog together.
I’m like a golden retriever in the relationship – happy, lively, kinda goofy —and he’s the cat. Fussy, jumpy and difficult to please.
He’ll decide if he (we) wants company, He’ll decide if/when/where – whatever.
Every once in a while, like a big ole dog would, I’ll whomp him upside the head (not literally) and settle his fussy self down. Pretty soon he’s purring again.
But, just like cats & dogs, we have a way of getting along and, nearly 22 years later, it’s never been dull.
I stumbled over this old favorite on YouTube yesterday morning and have been humming it ever since.
You ask me if there’ll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love
Never my loveYou wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose its desire for you
Never my love
Never my love
What about you? Can you see similarities in your relationship here? How are you the same? How are you different?
